Yep, he was my 2nd round pick last year. I remember that I got him one pick in front of you.

Don't remind me. Still stings

I don't know exactly what your job entails, but I can imagine you'll make a pretty penny to make it worth your time.

Pretty soon, you'll have Cam Newton money. 

On a side note, towel over the head acceptable for work?

But will he be his mom's favorite player?

Can he beat the 2015-2016 Golden State Warriors?

Can he count the amount of licks it takes to get to the center of a tootsie-pop?

Matt Ryan shouldn't have been on the board at 24

I agree.

Better pick than Peyton manning

I would agree. Had I been a few picks later, he would have likely been the guy I'd take.

Actually really surprised he went after Tyrod.

Ah yes, the simple one-name draft choices. I've missed you sizzle, the great non-conformist of the DaF game

Solid pick. Would've been strongly considered at my selection.

[regz1997]

For the record, I totally called that... No way in hell Big Ben is getting past Truth

[allblackraven]

It's unbelievable to me that Ben went after some other QBs.

Yep, same with Big Ben (who was my backup option to Brady as Truth knows). Non QBs being selected early helped push down the QBs. This was definitely the year to have a pick in the 20s in my opinion. 

I was actually expecting to have Matt Ryan under heavy consideration as my pick at the start of the game, given my draft spot (13) and QB ranking (11).

Good picks in Ryan and Big Ben. Both franchise QB's and Ben still has years left.

[52520Andrew]

Would have considered Ben a lot more if I didn't already have him in the forum mock

[Dubs]

I was planning on taking Big Ben if Jameis Winston was gone at my pick. So to me great value. Kinda annoyed this is the one year I get a half decent pick and may be the only year where you can get a franchise or very good starting QB in the 20s to 30s

[ludy51]

I knew the run on good QB's would start right before my pick. The experience is showing here 

[ludy51]

I have two franchise QB's I ant and only paradise is standing in my way

[RavensFanMania]

no reason Ben Roethlisberger or Ryan should have been available.

Well, I'm surprised they're available too. But it's not like both don't have reasons for others avoiding them. Ben seems to constantly get injured and it has to eventually take its toll on his body, and Ryan isn't known for being clutch in big games.

Yea I was torn between gronk 

and Ben. I somehow thought he'd fall to me because of how thus draft has been going

Heck no. Highly doubt he'd get past Ludy, and then no chance he gets past me. Too many vets on the back end of this draft

So many big name key players left out there. It is just trying to strike your memory and remember them. I understand we have not made it through the 1st round yet but all day at work I was thinking of player after player who could really help bolster any roster. It is going to be interesting to see this move and change as the rounds go by.

Yea I couldnt trust Ben's health plus Ryan gives me an extra championship window. Ben is the next 5 years then done.

It's like I'm Ozzie. Somehow ppl in front of me dont realize you can't win without a franchise QB

Lucky you, I gotta change my board around. Only 1 QB left on my original board (first time trying this) and 2 picks in front of me. Sure you don't wanna pick a long snapper?

It gets boring if everyone dies the same thing in the first round man. You act as if there is only one way to get err done. A good qb fell to you. Be happy
